In the wake of the Las Vegas shootings, Kansas Congressman Kevin Yoder is calling for a ban on devices that can turn legal firearms into military style assault weapons. But Democrats seeking to unseat Yoder are accusing him of a politically motived reversal of his previous position. More from Jim McLean of the Kansas News Service.
